I was figuring there would be a blu ray release by now but i guess covid shut everything like that down?

I had been keeping an eye on the release date for the bluray and saw nothing for months but it looks like they just posted it for preorder, comes out 10/27 in the US.

And his enemies are the Black Mask and the League... of...

looks out the window and sees four guys trying to rob a carnival, then snorts another line of 1940s cocaine

Petty Crime! Black Mask and the League of Petty Crime! Wait, what do you mean Black Mask is DC? Fine! Just call him Black and give him a skull mask!

Edit: Yes, his first nemeses really robbed a carnival. Then they tried to get away from him on a roller coaster.

(Also Nazis. It was World War II. He punched a lot of Nazis.)

Bonus points if the hero gets really into it and starts offering constructive criticism instead of whining about “atrocities” and “human rights”.

Perpetually a Pain.
The Whizzer was only cool in the original Squadron Supreme miniseries, insofar as he was a total dad style dork who once ran across the country to grab an SMG with the biggest magazine he could find from the bin of confiscated guns at a police station, then ran back with it...to try and gun down the league of extraordinary jerks, after they'd mind-controlled/captured the rest of the Squadron and bragged about how they'd be murdering his family next, before more than a few seconds had passed.



It didn't work out, but it's an excellent object lesson for why you don't spook speedsters.

So...uh...apparently the girl can use her illusions on people's brains to essentially mind-control them

quote:

When using her quirk, Mahoro was able to put illusions/holograms directly into kacchan's brain to make it cloudy. Mind-controlled-chan is the best partner who will listen to whatever she says.

Mind control and illusions? Both of those are pretty scary in the hands of an irresponsible kid, but at least she ain't a full-blown supervillain.

I think it’s more that if the subject’s personal illusions are sufficiently convincing and flexible, that is itself a form of mind control.

During the fight where the boys are protecting her, I was waiting for her to use her illusions to throw Nines off the trail for a second to give them time to recover, but nope...

I'm not sure acid slime is the best delivery method here. You'd think Sugarman would be best, he could put the sedative in an irresistible bun.
